Brief description

The project titled “Lectures on energy systems: nuclear, wind, photovoltaic and hydrogen” was aimed primarily at high school students, local government representatives and the industrial sector.

The goal was to raise public awareness of the use of various energy systems (nuclear power, hydrogen power, the widely understood area of renewable sources, such as wind power and photovoltaics). Nine lectures were delivered as part of the project.

The culmination of the project was an ECO PICNIC (June 14th this year ) on the campus of the Koszalin University of Technology at which scientific workshops were held, presentations of companies in the energy industry, demonstrations of modern equipment in the field of renewable energy. There were also panel discussions.
